I tried my level best to wrestle you away... But your demons, Oh how they gripped you so tight! I couldn't free you! Oh, I tried! God knows I tried! But your demons won... All that remains, beautiful memories of us... Date written and posted: 03/25/2019

So sad to see demons winning out over love and happiness. Unfortunately happens too often.
